QUOTE(tech3910 @ Sep 25 2011, 05:03 PM) the way it intended to work is, u dun hav to close it manually. whenever u done wit an app A, just switch to next app B. app A will b put in pause modem which wont use any resource. it will auto close after a while idling. but although it don't use any resource from the CPU, but it uses up RAM as shown when I access task manager to check.. another problem I face is I can't get some programme to work cuz it says it fail to connect to internet to check whether that programme safe to use or not..

As the name implies, it's a preview for developers, so don't expect it to include features for the end users.

Microsoft should focus on the touch interface. The default interface should be pretty much like the previous version, why should there any radical changes to it?

I believe there will be a way for an apps to 'resume' just like in Windows Phone 7.
